Topic: Riffs That Knot Your Fingers
There are some single note riffs which I find always tie my fingers in knots, even though I've been playing them for years. The worst ones are:
1) The opening riff from "Skating Away" by Jethro Tull (while singing "Meanwhile back in the year one")
2) The opening riff from "Life of Illusion" by Joe Walsh (I play it in standard tuning)
3) "Immigrant Song" by Led Zeppelin (can rarely manage to mute the A-string consistently)
I've worked out the fingering to make them work, but just can't execute with consistency. Any others care to confess the songs that tie their fingers up?
